Metamorphosis Lyrics: Wizards Cast Spells

Wizards cast spells,
Judges give sentences,
The world is a lyrical place...

Spell your name...

If I could, I would fold these words like origami,
And float them on the water so they'd swim your way.
And if I could, I'd hang these words like laundry,
So if the day got hot, we'd have a spot in the shade.

I would take these words and sprinkle them like rose petals,
From your toes to your head they'd fall forever never settle.
I would fluff these words into feathers, making a bed,
So you would dream peacefully each night you slept,
And when you awoke, they'd make a beautiful silk robe,
So every part of you would love every other and you would know.

If I could, I would braid these words into a rope,
So we could climb up to Heaven and watch the moon come and go.

I would fashion these words into a hammock so we'd swing in it,
And feel the time pass the way the hammock was singing it,
Then they'd march up your arms and find the places you're ticklish,
And then we'd squeeze out the juice like nectar and drink of them.

I would melt these words down to gold kernels and plant them,
So you'd have more fruit in your garden than you can manage.
And if you got hurt, I'd wrap these words around you like a bandage,
That would mend your sweet wounds with the most soothing of language, the way

Wizards cast spells
and judges give sentences,
The world is a lyrical place...

Spell your name, so the empress can enter it into the record.

From alpha to omega, a circle is made,
As the snake bites its trail from a to z and from z to a...

With words, we send our love and affection,
And with words, we defend and protect us,
They say the tongue's a double-sword, with it we've kissed and we've fought,
Debated and taught, so "let me hold my tongue not!"
(Quoteth Shakespeare)
And the message is clear: words create reality,
What we say appears,
The way molecules make a chair,
Humanity's made of stories,
So draw your double-edged sword,
I'm not speaking metaphorically.

(chorus)

and hold it like a key because we're cracking the code!
